Big MM pods in equities LS and quant

Hi,

I have been an equities analyst for 5+ years but feel like I've been living under a rock. What are some examples of big teams (individual MM pod) and how much GMV do they manage? I've heard of some managing 4-5B but curious to know who the really big guys are. For example how much the biggest teams manage in the likes of MLP/Citadel/P72/BAM etc, and what do they do?

Sorry if it's a silly question.
